News from DOK.fest Munich:
TRACES OF RESPONSIBILITY by Anja Reiß & Jann Anderegg wins the DOK.digital – Award for new narrative formats. We congratulate all participants and as co-producer we are extremely happy about this award.
From the jury’s statement:
“(…) This interactive storytelling format was the result of an enormous amount of hard work: Over 150 sequences, over seven hours of film – without compromising on production quality. The project shows that there are documentary topics that can be received interactively – not only alone, but also in a collaborative setting in the cinema.”
The interactive documentary features a single-player and a multiplayer version in which the audience’s decisions influence the narrative. Viewers are immersed in a multi-perspective exploration of the complex origins and aftermath of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, following the trail of a convicted war criminal with ties to Switzerland.
